PUBG Lite has an exclusive currency called L-Coin or LC. This is a premium currency which can only be bought from the store for real money. It works alongside BP which is the main currency of PUBG Lite and works the same as all the other versions. The currency is spent on a few premium items in the game which have no real effect on the gameplay. PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds has a loot crate system where you spend currency earned in-game on new boxes filled with random items, or purchase those boxes with real money on the Steam Market.

Buying PUBG crates in the beginning of the week

There’s currently free PUBG crates that you can get by spending Battle Points (you get these points by playing the game), if you first buy a crate then decide to buy another the next one will cost more battle points then the first one and each new crate will cost more to get, so buying a lot of crates can cost you a lot of Battle Points. In the beginning of the week everyone’s crate price is reset, so once again everyone can buy crates a the cheap original price with their points.

And once everyone gets their new crates it tends to be a lot of people that want to sell them to get some Steam funds, and just because there’s so many trying to sell their crates at once the price usually drops, everyone is undercutting each other to get their crate sold as fast as possible. This trend is a great opportunity to get yourself some cheap crates, you can either sell them when the price has gone up again or you can use them to trade with other people to get some skins or something.

The profit isn’t great but it’s always good idea to be on the lookout for these kinds of trends on the Steam Community market.

Discounted PUBG skins for sale

Opskins and Bitskins are two sites that offer marketplaces where you can buy & sell skins for real money. Both these sites have sections on their site where you can find a bunch of discounted deals, these sections are always worth a visit to see if there’s any items of interest at a good price. Always double check and see if the deal is as good as it says, sometimes the stats and the recommended price can be way off, especially for rare and expensive items.

This is especially good if you want to get Steam funds, you can easily find skins at a 30% discount searching the above sites. Prices for PUBG skins are almost always lower when buying and selling them for real money just because of the simple reason that people like money..

Buy cheap PUBG skins with buy orders

As mentioned Bitskins is a site where you buy & sell your PUBG skins for real money. They have a feature called Buy orders that has some real potential in getting you some cheap skins. Buy orders works like this, you choose a item you want to buy and then you set a price you would like to buy it for, when someone sells the item for the price you requested you buy it automatically. You can easily get items way below it’s market value this way.

Just make sure that when placing your buy orders to not set it at some ridiculously low amount, if it’s too low nobody will sell the item to you, make it cheap but fair for both parties and this will works the best. You can place buy orders for any kind of PUBG skin really, but I suggest you go for skins that have a high demand, otherwise your in for a nightmare trying to sell a item nobody wants.

Trade between marketplaces

The price on different marketplace sites can actually vary a lot and you can easily take advantage of that by buying items from one site and resell it on another site, it sounds stupid simple but it can be quite efficient actually. The biggest draw back is that it can be rather time consuming comparing prices on different marketplaces and trying to find where you can make profit, and also most PUBG marketplaces takes a sales fee so that will eat up some of your profit.

Stockpile skins

Stockpile items and wait for them to rise in value has been one of the more efficient methods lately but it’s always one of the more risky ways of trading just because items tend to rise and fall quite a bit, so be prepared to make some good and bad investments if you’re going to give this a try.

So why do certain skins go up in price and some don’t? This is of course a complicated subject that has no real answer, that being said here’s my answer to why some items rise in value, but keep in mind that these are only speculations based on my experience in trading, so take it with a grain of salt.

A items rarity, just take a look at the Playerunknown’s trenchcoat or bandana, these two items was given to people who pre-ordered the game, so these items will never be dropped or unboxed again, there’s a limited amount of these skins making them rare and more expensive.
The Traders hype, this is something we been seeing a lot recently in PUBG, people are noticing that items are going up in value on the Steam market so they invest in that item thinking it’s a good deal and a item on the rise, this creates a snowball effect where more and more people invest in a item because they want to earn some money off it, this usually continue until the item crashes and goes down in value, it’s after that crash you can expect to see a more stable price.
It looks good..
The item has a uniqueness, if item is unique compared to the other skins it could be a reason for it to have a high value, like the yellow Tracksuit Top, it’s bright and colourful compared to other items, so if someone is looking for something colourful and fun they might go for it.
New skins, people want to try out the latest and new skins tend to rise in value.

Make sure to have a lookout for these properties in skins when new crates are released, it might help you make some good investments in the future.

I’m sure you would rather see me giving more specific advise on what exact items to buy and resell, but I’m not going to do that because;

My predictions could be wrong, also if you have the right mindset your predictions can be as good as mine.
I don’t know what will gain in value. Nobody knows.
Things change, new skins & crates will be released, and what will change up everything.

What are other PUBG traders buying?

One last tip for stockpiling and investing in PUBG skins, and that’s to spy on other traders and see what they’re doing, head over to any PUBG trading site and look for any trader that’s either dealing with a lot of expensive items or high volumes of skins, go to that persons Steam profile and head over to their PUBG inventory, here you’ll see all the items they own and see what they’re stockpiling.

You can sort their inventory by items that are “Not marketable”, this will show up some cheap skins that never will turn tradeable, ignore those. Items that has recently been bought on the community market will also show up here (a item will be not marketable/tradable for 7 days after a purchase), this is a easy way to see what other people’s recent investments from the Steam market is, and could give you some ideas on what you could possible invest in next.

You could even bookmark big traders inventories and check regularly to see if they done any recent investments that you could replicate.
